When Chen Desheng, the commander of the guard battalion of the eastward advance detachment, recklessly shouted a report and pushed the door in, he saw Yan Rou stuffing eggs into Xiao Siming's mouth, and he was stuck on the ground at once. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Yan Rou turned her back to the door and didn't see Chen Desheng, but when she heard Chen Desheng's voice shouting a report, her hand holding the egg was released at once, and a few red glows flew on her pretty face, and even the roots of her neck and ears were crimson, and she whispered to Xiao Siming, "I'm leaving", and turned around to leave.

Xiao Siming didn't expect Chen Desheng to be so reckless, he pushed the door in shouting the report, he was a little embarrassed, his face was red, and for a while, he had a feeling of being a thief.

Reaching out to hold the egg, taking a bite, and swallowing it hard, Xiao Siming called out to Yan Rou and explained: "The army acts, discipline comes first!" Don't run around if it's okay, stay with Shi Poshan and them, and don't leave the guard circle of the guard force! ”

Yan Rou snorted like a "hmm", lowered her head, and walked quickly past Chen Yisheng to find the camping site of the logistics office.

Chen Desheng accidentally bumped into such an embarrassing thing and behaved correctly. As soon as Yan Rou left, Chen Desheng also hurriedly ran away, and even forgot to salute and report to Xiao Siming.

Will this cause people to misunderstand!

Chen Desheng is the commander of the guard battalion, and he is the backbone of the old Red Army brought out by Xiao Siming from the Tibetan Mountain Temple, and he will definitely not talk nonsense. But it's not good to let Chen Desheng have a misunderstanding, after all, is it a misunderstanding!

Xiao Siming couldn't cry or laugh, he felt that this matter was too sudden, he just felt that Yan Rou was also very good, and he didn't eat half an egg, Chen Desheng came suddenly by chance, and he didn't fake it at all, he pushed the door while shouting the report, so that people didn't even have time to react. Life is really amazing, there is such an unbelievable sudden appearance!

As soon as the words "suddenly appeared" popped out of his mind, Xiao Siming was a spirit: "Damn, the little devil won't give Lao Tzu a sudden appearance, right?" ”

I couldn't remember what I missed for a few days, but at this time, it suddenly became clear, and I immediately understood that what I missed was the word "ghost" of the little devil!

Xiao Siming couldn't care about the embarrassment of wanting to be seen by Chen Desheng when Yan Rou fed him eggs, walked quickly to the map, examined it again, and then called Deputy Chief of Staff Zheng Xiuchuan to come over and ask him to immediately send a report to Zhou Kaidong, the head of the Wudi Independent Regiment in Luokou, and Chen Qicai, the political commissar, to check the movements of the Fifth Division.

As soon as he thought of the word "ghost" of the little devil, Xiao Siming thought clearly, and there were many ways for the Japanese army to cross the Yellow River. Since the river defense position in Luokou is garrisoned by the Eighth Route Army, why does the little devil have to cross the river in Luokou? Isn't that looking for a collision with the muzzle of the Eighth Route Army? They could have chosen another crossing point to cross the river.

As soon as he figured out this reason, Xiao Siming thought that if he was the commander of the North China Front, Shouichi Terauchi, what he would never forget would definitely be to carry out a sudden attack on the Eighth Route Army, a sudden encirclement, so that the Eighth Route Army would not be able to escape. Since this is the case, it will definitely not fight hard with the He River Defense Unit of the Eighth Route Army in Luokou, and it is completely possible to quickly cross the river in a different way and in a different place. For example, in the south of Jinan, the boat ferry of another number or the hypothetical pontoon bridge crossing the river, and even the Fifth Division can be quickly transported to Qingdao through the Jiaoji railway and highway, where it can be transported by ship to Tianjin and ashore from Tanggu. With the mobility of the Fifth Division, it will soon be able to reach the Cangzhou front line and press from north to south.

Thinking that the Fifth Division of the Japanese Army could transport Qingdao by car and Tianjin by ship, Xiao Siming silently calculated in his heart, feeling that it was more convenient and faster than building a pontoon bridge on the Yellow River near Jinan, and it could also avoid casualties, which was actually the best policy!

If he really was Shouichi Terauchi, he would probably do it!

Think about it, the Eighth Route Army's attention was focused on the south bank of the Yellow River in Luokou, but the Fifth Division suddenly appeared in Cangzhou and killed it from behind the Eighth Route Army, what was the result?

It was definitely a shocking pop-up!

Also, since the Japanese Fifth Division may sneak up from the north, the little devils will definitely have a surprise and sudden action in the south, so as to cooperate with the Fifth Division to attack from the north and south, and put the Eighth Route Army that captured Texas into the net, and wipe it all out!

So where will the little devils from the south come from?

The Japanese troops fighting on the Longhai Road were attacking Kaifeng, and it was certainly impossible for them to return to North China to participate in the battle to seize Dezhou. Will the Japanese army transfer the 114th Division, or the 3rd Brigade and the 5th Brigade from Xuzhou to the north, and then cross the river to the north?

After thinking about it, Xiao Siming shook his head and denied his thoughts. Because the Japanese army's ad hoc divisions and independent mixed brigades are not as effective as permanent divisions and regiments. Moreover, when they were on the battlefield in Shanxi, the Japanese Army's 109th Division and 108th Division had suffered losses in their own hands. In particular, the 10th and 9th Divisions were beaten all over the ground looking for teeth. Not to mention the independent mixed brigades, when they participated in the battle to recapture Shouyang County, they were so frightened that they couldn't pee. Terauchi Shouichi would not use these third-rate and fourth-rate troops to deal with the eastward advance detachment of the Eighth Route Army.

This is not because Xiao Siming is arrogant, but because people are not stupid. General Terauchi Shouichi knew that the combat effectiveness of the ad hoc divisions and independent mixed brigades was not as good as that of the permanent divisions, and the Eighth Route Army was good at ambushes and attacks, so he would definitely not let them be cannon fodder. You must know that it was the eastward advance detachment of the Eighth Route Army that captured Texas, which had the anti-aircraft firepower to shoot down planes and the anti-tank firepower to destroy combat vehicles, which was different from the ordinary Chinese army.

Shouichi Terauchi will definitely dispatch elite troops to take on the task of assisting on the southern front!

If Terauchi Shouichi only wanted to recapture Texas and regain control of the Jinpu Road, it would be enough to transfer only one division of the Fifth Division. But Xiao Siming knew very well in his heart that Terauchi Shouichi had a big appetite, and he definitely wanted to annihilate his eastward advance detachment in one fell swoop, and even wanted to eliminate the anti-Japanese forces behind enemy lines on the North China Plain in one fell swoop to ensure the safety of Pinghan Road and Jinpu Road. He would never have transferred just one Fifth Division.

The Fifth Division has returned to Jinan, and another elite unit of the Japanese army that is fighting with the Fifth Division and pulling the net from the south must also be on its way. It's just that I don't know which unit the Japanese army is sending and where it will cross the river.

Xiao Siming pondered for a while, but he really couldn't think of which elite division or brigade could be transferred by Shouichi Terauchi to carry out the task of outflanking Texas from south to north. Because the First Army and the Second Army of the North China Front Army are all on the bright side, and Terauchi Shouichi has no adjustable troops.

It is not excluded that Terauchi Shouichi reported to the base camp that one of the main divisions of the Central China Dispatch Army was transferred, such as the 3rd Division, the 6th Division, the 9th Division, the 13th Division, etc., but thinking about it is impossible!

It is not that there is a contradiction between the North China Front Army and the Central China Dispatch Army, and General Shun Hata does not buy the account of General Toshiichi Terauchi and does not support him, but the territory occupied by the Japanese army is too large, and they have not really eliminated the main force of the Chinese army, and the Japanese army has divided troops to garrison to prevent the Chinese army from counterattacking.

As a result, both the North China Front and the Central China Dispatch Army have the problem of insufficient troops.

Since Terauchi Shouichi couldn't get support from the Central China Army, he definitely had to find a way internally. This method can only be found in the sequence of the Second Army, because the First Army is mainly responsible for the operation of the Shanxi battlefield, taking into account the garrison of Pinghan Road, and the 14th Division is used in the eastern Henan battlefield.

As for the Second Army, there were originally three divisions under its jurisdiction: the 10th Division, the 16th Division, and the 108th Division, of which the 108th Division was now transferred to the command of the First Army, and the Second Army actually only had two divisions, the 10th and 16th. Now, in order to strengthen the Second Army, the North China Front has just transferred the 14th Division to the command of the Second Army.

That is to say, there are three elite divisions of the Japanese army, the 10th Division, the 14th Division, and the 16th Division, as well as the mixed 3rd Brigade and the 13th Brigade transferred from the Kwantung Army, with a total strength of almost 100,000 people.

Of course, among the three divisions, the 10th Division suffered a heavy blow in Taierzhuang, the 14th Division suffered a lot of casualties in the Battle of Lanfeng, and the only one that did not suffer a heavy blow was the 16th Division of the Japanese Army.

If Shouichi Terauchi wants to send troops to attack from the south to the north, then he can only transfer the 16th Division!

The problem is that the report of the First Theater transmitted by the headquarters made it clear that after the 16th Division captured Shangqiu, it continued to advance westward with a detachment of the 3rd Brigade, the 13th Brigade, and the 10th Division, and the offensive was fierce, which led to the First Theater having to end the Battle of Lanfeng in a hurry.

Could it be that the problem lies with this 16th Division?

During the Battle of Xuzhou, the 16th Division was a concealed strategic intention, suddenly appeared in the Luxi area, crossed the Yellow River, and punched the soft underbelly of the defense of the Fifth War Zone, resulting in a great change in the battlefield situation!

This time, will Shouichi Terauchi repeat his old tricks?

Thinking and pondering, Xiao Siming's mind gradually cleared up.

Zheng Xiuchuan came in, holding a telegram from Zhou Kaidong and Chen Qicai, reporting that the troops of the Japanese Fifth Division on the opposite side of the Luokou Bridge had tried to collect equipment for crossing the river, but were intercepted by the fire of the Wudi Independent Regiment. Later, it was discovered that the Japanese army had set up a pontoon bridge near Wujiadu in Changqing County, south of Jinan, and Zhou Kaidong led two battalions to fight it, and the Japanese army retreated. However, the Japanese still tried to build a bridge there, and brought in artillery to intercept our troops with fire and cover the bridge. It's just that the speed at which the Japanese army built the bridge is not fast, and it has not yet reached the middle of the river!

After reading the telegram, Xiao Siming climbed to the map and looked at it for a while, measured the distance with a ruler, and after a while, Xiao Siming straightened up and said to Zheng Xiuchuan: "Record telegram: 100,000 urgent!" The division headquarters was transferred to the headquarters and the Northern Bureau, and the Tianjin party organization was instructed to send capable personnel to Tanggu Port as soon as possible to monitor the changes in the Japanese ships in Tanggu Port, and to report quickly after discovering that the Fifth Division had landed in Tanggu! He also asked the division headquarters to order the Sulu-Henan detachment to quickly dispatch reconnaissance troops, carrying radio stations, to carry out reconnaissance at the crossings of the Yellow River, and report immediately after discovering that the Japanese army had crossed the river! ”

As soon as Zheng Xiuchuan finished recording, Xiao Siming then ordered: "Send a report to the Wudi Independent Regiment, and order Chen Qicai, the political commissar of the Wudi Independent Regiment, to personally take the radio and a company to reconnoiter south along the Yellow River, as far as Dong'e territory, and report immediately after discovering the situation of the Japanese army crossing the river, and quickly retreat." Send a report to Political Commissar Xiao: 100,000 are urgent, judging that the Fifth Division of the Japanese Army may be transported to Qingdao by car, from Qingdao to land in Tanggu, Tianjin, and then secretly transported to the Jinnan area, to carry out a sneak attack on our Hebei-Shandong border base area, and the attack arrow is directed at Dezhou; It was judged that the other line of Japanese troops should cross the river south of Jinan and cooperate with the Fifth Division to carry out a flanking attack on Dezhou. The purpose of the Japanese army's operation was to encircle and annihilate our eastward advance detachment to capture Dezhou, and it was possible to take advantage of the situation to sweep away our base areas behind enemy lines in the North China Plain. Therefore, it is recommended to immediately end the offensive operations against the strongholds of the Japanese army such as Wuqiao and Dongguang, and urgently mobilize in the Jilu border area and switch to anti-sweeping operations. ”

As for how to fight the internal line of the anti-sweeping operation, when Xiao Siming went to see Xiao Hua, he had already had an in-depth exchange of views, and basically had a rough plan! (To be continued.) )
